Our Articles & Clinical Cases

With increasing number of reports and studies of unusual root canal morphology, It is of utmost importance that the clinician must have detailed knowledge of the pulp canal anatomy to achieve effectively proper cleaning and shaping of the root canal system. Failure to recognize the aberrant root canal anatomy will lead to an unsuccessful treatment and thus failure of the endodontic therapy.
This case report describes a very rare scenario of a mandibular right first molar with five root canals (three in distal root and two in mesial root) and a maxillary left second molar with also five root canals (three in the mesial buccal root, one in the distobuccal root, and one palatal) in the same patient.

This article is about showing the way of bypassing SI from both inner and outer wall, and which is correct in order to obtain satisfying outcome away from any unnecessary complications.

Sinus tract tracing, proper diagnosis, and patient education are all the big players involved in this tooth story!

It is no surprise that I find all of advanced diagnostic techniques, i.e.; cone beam scans for example, extremely useful to figure out the source of pain plaguing my patients, it’s worth investing my time and energy into the latest technology.
But keeping things old-school has its value too. Therefore, I would like to show you a case where a classic diagnostic method—sinus tract tracing—proved invaluable in my endodontic diagnosis.

Root canal treatment of maxillary second molar can be very difficult . Beside the limited accesibility of tooth in mouth with limited mouth opening ,with complex root canal anatomy specially […]

In this article we are going to share how to manage an upper first molar in a predictable way for a long-term successful re-treatment.

Variations in the root canal configurations are a great challenge for the endodontist during endodontic procedures. This necessitates the understanding of canal morphology before initiating the treatment.

Teeth with previous apical resection and persistent apical periodontitis are usually re-treated surgically or with a combination of non-surgical and surgical re-treatment. Alternatively, nonsurgical orthograde treatment of failed apicoectomy can […]

Endodontic management of a very rare case of tooth no 2.7

One of the most important prerequisites for successful endodontic treatment is the adequate knowledge and understanding of root canal anatomy. The mandibular first molar (MFM) seems to be the tooth […]

Several filling techniques exist: the clinician should be choosing the filling technique according to the clinical conditions.

Fractured endodontic instruments visualized on the initial radiograph of a case that calls for retreatment may pose a great challenge to the clinician who is being asked to undertake an […]

Fracture of root canal instruments used in root canals is a common complication in endodontics. In this article, I will demonstrate the creation of a custom loop that can be used to retrieve a broken root canal instrument
